The Maroon LOYOLA UNIVERSITY, NEW ORLEANS, LA., NOVEMBER 12, 1937 Volume XV No. 9 . ; » ACTIVITY CALENDAR READ THE NEW President Add r esses Convention Loyola Head Speaks Before Educators Convention The Very Rev. Harold A. Gaudin, S. J., president of the university, spoke before the twentyfourth annual meeting of the Association of Urban universities, held at Birmingham, Alabama, last Monday and Tuesday on the question, "City Life and the Preservation of Civilization." "Mutually independent society has built a civilization allowing luxuries to the poor that were f ormerely attainable only by the rich," Father Gaudin stated, "so ' that this social structure can be maintained only by men and women of strength." He deplored the doctrines that were taught in some universities, which lead young people to think that advanced civilization demands more self-gratification. Attacks So-Called Freedom Speaking of the method of instruction used by certain materialistic philosophers, he attacked the so-called academic freedom. "What I am about to say will lead some of you to think that I am against academic freedom. If academic freedom means the right to pursue unflinchingly every avenue leading to knowledge and truth, I assure you none love it more than I. If academic freedom means the freedom of a professor of mathematics to teach unharrassed that two and two make five, and that intellectual freedom gives the undergraduate the right to say that the formula of water is TNT, I am against it." Mr. Homer P. Rainey, head of the N.Y.A. and director of the American Youth Commission, spoke on "An Educational Program for Modern Youth." Mr. Homer stated that in cities of a population over 100,000 the death rate exceeds the birth rate. Hence the urban sections depend upon the rural districts as a source of population.

"Varsity Joe" Miranne Is Versatile Gridder Most versatile gridder in col- ] legiate America—that's the honor i Loyola students are claiming for I Joe "on the spot" Miranne, soph triple-threater on this year's var- I sity football squad. i Joe thrives on duty and plenty ! i of it. On the green-swarded grid- ; i iron he busies himself running, 1 kicking, and passing the pigskin. ' i With two more years of intercol- 11 legiate competition remaining, ] Joe's 165 pounds of fight and dash 1 are sure to be heard from. t Off the football field, Varsity Joe becomes the polished veteran * of the stage boards. Coming from \ Jesuit High, where he distinguished ' i himself as an athlete, actor, orator, ;' and scholar, Joe has made quite a r name for himself in recent Thes- i pian productions. Poise, personal- I ity, and a pleasant voice made him • £ an ideal leading man of the Bob I Taylor type. Joe's admirers, par- r ticularly the fairer ones, point to i v last year's Thespian hit, "Song of ' t My Heart," as evidence conclusive of their point. Debater Too On the debating rostrum or behind the microphone, it doesn't make any difference to Joe. As an exponent of the forensic art he won several gold medals at his former alma mater and was a top ranking member of the debating team. Footballer-Thespian-debater Miranne should have little trouble making speeches at banquets and the like. And if speeches bore you, well, Joe can soothe away your troubles with a bit of crooning patented after the Bing Crosby technique. "On the Spot", the monicker which members of the team gave him after a certain incident recently, has occupied the spotlight for the greater part of his nineteen years. Modestly, Joe is looking for more worlds to conquer. Meanwhile co-eds continue to giggle and talk about our Varsity Joe. Crystal Room Scene Of Initial Band Function Student Orchestra To Furnish Music From 8 Till 12 In keeping with the precedent established two years ago, the uni- I versity band will sponsor a dance [ Sunday night from 8 p.m. till 12 midnight, in the Crystal Ballroom of the American Legion home, located in the Vieux Carre. Making its debut on the Loyola campus on this occasion will be the reorganized student orchestra, under the direction of Charles Fisher. Although not heard often latt year, this musical organization, with many new and catchy arrangements should be in great demand at student functions during the coming school session. AH proceeds from the affair will be used to pay for the uniforms purchased by the band last year, Thomas Kelly, chairman of the committee in charge, announced. , Invitations at 50 cents per couple I and 35 cents per stag may be purchased from any member of the band or at the door. "You can be assured of a nice time at the band function," Kelly said, pointing to the socials of former years to verify this statement. "With the cooperation of students, alumni and friends of the university, we hope, with the proceeds of this dance and those of the annual winter concert, to finish payment on the uniforms, which have helped considerably in keeping our band abreast of musical organizations in the various colleges and universities." Assisting Kelly in handling arrangements are George Malochee and Charles Fisher. Directory To Go On Sale Soon A total of 1000 copies of the J Loyola student directory will be put on sale in the early part of 'next week, Harvey Poret, compiler, ■ announced Tuesday.

The cover will be of maroon color in place of last year's gray. To facilitate sales, a committee will be appointed, whose members will have copies available at all times, Poret said. A definite place at which copies may be purchased will be announced soon. Student Body: Me, I think that it looked mighty bad on our part, when the football team left Wednesday night, with no send-off whatsoever. It's at times like the present, when the team is not doing so well that they need our backing. A pat on the back and a word of encouragement go a long way toward soothing the wounds of defeat. And after the big celebration made for the Catholic U. trip, a representative group of students, at least, could have been on hand to tell the boys good-bye and wish them good luck. Let's make it up to 'em next week.
